What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer
Restless in the best way. Wants to see more, learn more and say exactly what is on his mind. His restlessness keeps testing his plans, so he changes course more than once to stay true to himself.
The Sun quincunx Uranus (close at 2.8°)
What he needs
Moon in Scorpio, the Vault
Still on the surface and strong underneath. Holds on to feelings, and to the people who earn them. His moods change without warning, and he wants closeness and room to breathe at the same time.
The Moon opposition Uranus (almost exact at 0.5°)
How he loves
Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee
Loves fiercely, privately and for keeps. Wants complete trust and a bond that goes beneath the surface. A romantic with an artist’s eye: he sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.
Venus sextile Neptune (close at 1.1°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher
Thinks big and speaks frankly. Loves ideas, learning and talking about what things mean. He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
Mercury square Saturn (wide at 3.3°)
What drives him
Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel
Independent and inventive in action. Fights for the group, the future and a fairer way. Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacts first, and his courage comes from the same place as his flashes of anger.
The Moon square Mars (close at 2.8°)
The shape of his chart
Saturn is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his discipline touches everything else in it. In his chart, water signs hold the most planets: feeling and intuition.
The sky the day he was born
